Tokyo Romantic Illumination - It's His season

Tokyo Romantic Illumination

It's December and it's His season!!

Shimbashi is known as the station of the first train line in Japan. A locomotive is displayed in front of the station to commemorate this first step of Japanese modernization. This locomotive is the icon of Shimbashi and serves as very popular meeting spot like "faithful dog Hachiko" in Shibuya.

Now the locomotive is decorated with illumination inspired by this winter season.

Look!! Someone is inside the locomotive!!

(Let's sing!!) Santa Claus is coming to Shimbashi...

He is coming in locomotive instead of sled. Modern Santa, isn't he?

Shimbashi is also known as popular night spot with a lot of reasonable Izakaya. This place is often called as "Salary Man Paradise". If you want I can introduce one of Izakaya there to finish your day after my tour.
